Ariel caressed her cheeks that stung like hell. The metallic tang of blood filled her mouth, and she resisted the urge to spit it in the head cook's face. It would earn her another slap and while she prided in her perseverance, it was not an excellent idea.

She stomped across the dark marbled floors of the mansion, thinking of several creative ways she could poison both Damien and the head maid. Though, it would be pretty obvious if she used poison. They would trace it back to her. She thought about grinding glass as an ingredient in their food and decided against it. They would definitely trace the deaths back to her.

They already thought she was something she wasn't. It would not be hard to pin it all on her.

Stupid mansion. Stupid head maid. Stupid Alpha. She thought.

Her thoughts wandered to that night, that moment everything had gone to hell. That moment, something deep and powerful had taken a strong hold within her. A bond so strong, it had caused her knees to buckle. Her heart

    Ariel was a bit surprised, as to why they were being called into the corridor again because the head had told them three days ago that they would not be called to the corridor any more.They were always called into the corridor for only two things. One, to inspect them carefully for any form of sicknesses or if they were in any bad state, and the second one, was to make sure that all the slaves were still around and no one had run away.They had been doing this for a while, but Ariel didn't know why she felt weird today. She felt like going into the corridor was going to put her into some trouble or as if something bad was going to happen to her.The only time something bad had happened when they went to the corridor, was when one of her fellow slaves, Emma, was pregnant; she didn't know about it, until they went for their normal inspection.Ariel could still hear her screams as she was being dragged away. She shivered as the memory creeped back into her head.She looked around, and sh

  • Alpha Damien    Avoid his wrath

    Every delicacy was laid on the table, and they were arranged so beautifully that merely staring at it would make you feel hungry all over again.Ranging from veggie meals—to non veggie meals. Everything was on the table, and it was so mouthwatering, that even the head maid, Courtney, couldn’t believe that it could ever look so beautiful.The maids in the corridor could only lick their lips in salivation, they all wanted the food, but they couldn’t have it, and they could only dream of having the leftovers. Staring at the food, they held onto their stomachs, their stomachs were rumbling now, as they were presently starving from having to stare at such magnificence in front of them.“I wish I was a royal one,” one of the maids told another.“If your reason for wanting to be royal is the same as mine… trust me… You’re not wrong,” she replied, and they continued standing there.Other maids were also discussing how they wished they were given the chance to have a taste of the delicacies, bu

    After catching her gaze, Damien then walked straight towards Ariel. His eyes now carefully fixed on her. He entirely ignored Elle, who had been trying to report all manner of slander against Ariel.He intended to punish her for staring at them and out of her place. When he got closer to Ariel, the only punishment that went through his mind at that moment for her, was the usual humiliating and torturing mistreatments he always gave her in public. But, as he stopped in front of her, Elle rushed, clinging back to him as she kept telling her lies.“Can you believe this wretched peasant had the audacity to hit me on my face yesterday, only because I was trying to correct her? What sort of maid is she anyway!” Elle screamed into Damien’s ears.“She did?” Damien quickly inquired from Elle, who clung to his shoulders, following each step he took. Without looking towards her direction, his eyes remained fixed only on Ariel.Ariel, who seemed surprised now by the accusations tagged to her name,

    As if he was thinking otherwise, he shook his head sideways and went to the gathering hall. Elle like a pet followed blindly . Ariel hissed repeatedly. At least, the torture was over for now.That was a good thing, even though she knew it would be short-lived. She tried to stand up, but her legs had gone soft due to the fear from earlier, so she wobbled and fell back on her butt with a thud.She groaned with pain, but she knew that the longer she stayed here, the more danger she was in.Furthermore, she gritted her teeth and, after much effort, pushed herself to stand on her two feet.Her leg was still shaky, but she pushed on and began walking away.She had just stepped past the threshold when she was dragged in another direction harshly.From the whiff of sandalwood coming from the person, she already knew that it was Courtney, the head maid.“Come with me, bitch! You have been assigned to wash the dishes!” She stated as she continued to pull Ariel towards the kitchen roughly.Ariel

    Damien stood under the scorching sun whilst brimming with intense rage. He had been waiting for Ariel for over an hour outside now, and hoped that she would be out before he was done with exchanging goodbyes with Ella, but that didn’t happen.Instead, she didn’t show up. She didn’t even try to send out words to her train for not showing up.In sizzling anger, he dumped the files in his hand on a pavement, and decided that he would go meet her up himself, since she had refused to come downstairs.To him, she was a pompous girl who liked to have everything the way she wanted, but right now, he wouldn’t hesitate to put her in her place. He wasn't fine with her offences!Muttering several cuss words under his breath, he stormed angrily into her room, ready to hit her, and almost breaking the doorknob when he suddenly took in the sight in front of him.He froze in his steps when he saw her small frame looking all ghastly, and sprawled on the cold floor with a bright scarlet liquid which was

    “It was Elle,” Ariel said, looking at Alpha Damien.Immediately he heard the name Elle from Ariel's mouth, he turned furious and his eyes bloodshot red, he looked like a monster who was about to devour his victim.“What did you just say?” He asked her, looking so angry.“I said it was Elle,” Ariel replied to him.She was not expecting what was about to happen, as she suddenly felt a hard slap on her face. She held her face and looked at Alpha Damien, who had just slapped her. Not only that, but she was so shocked, as she wondered what she had done to warrant such action from him.Then, she realised that she had just told him that Elle was the one responsible for her condition, but even at that, how was it her fault that Elle hit her resulting in her unconsciousness?Not only that, but why was he attacking her for merely being a victim when Elle was his girlfriend, and she was just a mere slave? It was obvious that Damien would take the side of Elle, even if she was at fault.Alpha Dami

    Ariel left the bathroom, and went to her room to cry, the tears just kept on coming and coming. This time, she couldn't stop her mind from bringing those intrusive thoughts to her, and they just made everything worse, and it hurt her a lot.She missed her mother and her father and her freedom. She wanted to go home, to her happy place. Her wolf also needed to be free, she was tired of being hurt all the time. She was tired of being a punching bag to everyone in the pack. She hated this pack, she hated her pack, she hated Damien, she hated her life.She must have stayed a good hour bawling out her eyes, before she heard the door to her room open.Her breath immediately hitched, and she stopped sobbing because she knew who it was.

She could never make mistakes with that scent, regardless of what happened or where she was.She wondered why he was here, she didn't want him to catch her crying before he punished her further.

  • Alpha Damien    The end~

    "Uggh!" William groaned as he arched his back. He loosened his grip on Damien and staggered backwards. Damien coughed and sat up tiredly. He finally noticed that an arrow had pierced the back of William's head. There was not healing or coming back from that!Damien sighed in relief and looked around for the person who shot it. From the balcony on the second floor, he saw Elle standing there with her bow drawn. She seemed to be shocked by what she had just done as she stared wide eyes at her bow.Damien diverted his gaze back to William, who had now collapsed on the floor. He seemed to stare longingly in a particular direction as the light faded from his eyes and he went on a journey to the underworld. He looked in the direction William was looking and saw that he was staring at Ariel!Annoying prick! He just didn't want to let her go, even in death? Damien stood and walked towards where William lay. He used his feet to turn William's head in a different direction. He knew that his acti

    After they both marked each other, they shared a really nice kiss and after so many hours of talking, imagining their futures together, they finally slept.The next morning, Ariel jolted from the bed and she opened her eyes instantly. She looked around and she saw Damien sleeping peacefully, with his hand lying lazily on her waist. She had thought that her mating with Damien was a really good dream that she badly wanted to come to pass.She touched her neck and she could still feel the heat from last night. She pushed her head into the pillow and smiled. It wasn't a dream at all. It really happened. She turned her head to face Damien . She didn't want to wake him up, but she couldn't help touching his face, nose, hair and literally everything her hand could touch at that moment. She was touching his hair, when her eyes went to his lips and she started using her index finger to trace the little line around his lips. She was really enjoying what she was doing and she started laughing to

    "Find him!" Damien 's voice boomed across the kitchen and Ariel flinched as well as the rest of the sentries who scampered out after his outburst. "Hey," He said softly, reaching for Ariel, but she flinched again, breathing hard and fast, staring at the direction in which Williams had gone, eyes wide with fear and despair. "Ar--" A whimper escaped her and he hated that he could smell her fear. He hated that she trembled so much. It hadn't been long since he had made her go through the same fear. He had made those tears drop from her eyes, broken her spirit, broken her heart, and...seeing her now, with the same fear in her eyes...he hated himself for everything he'd done to her. "Ariel," he said, barely able to hear his voice over his raging heart. Ariel didn't either as her sobs began in full earnest. It was like he didn't exist. She couldn't see him. Or hear him. She was scared out of her mind. "Ariel!" He roared, unable to keep his wolf at bay. Her gaze snapped to him and her so

    When they were all done and once everybody had departed and gone to celebrate, Ariel walked up to Damien , Alex and Elle at the podium."Looks like someone's gonna get a beating" Alex snickered. Come on Elle. Let's leave them alone""Ariel , I can explain" Damien tried defending"Well I'm listening" she said as she put her hands on her waist and stood akimbo. She wasn't angry at all but it was very fun to see him fidget, this alone made her laugh"Why are you laughing??" He asked her clearly suspicious, someone who laughed when they were angry are psychotic people"Because it's funny. And just so you know" she poked him in his chest as she said "just because I'm laughing doesn't mean I'm not angry. You could have at least warned me. I was really worried"It was if as the days went on he fell for this wonderful woman standing right in front of him more and more"I'm sorry. We're sorry. It won't happen again" he said, giving her a hug which she deeply sank into. She had missed him and hi

  • Alpha Damien    Long day

    Damien 's legs finally remembered their functions and they ran to meet Ariel. He instantly hugged her as he saw her standing right in front of him. He felt really happy to see her, he really felt so good. Only Ariel could give him that type of happiness and satisfaction. He started beaming at her, forgetting about anything that didn't involve her. He even forgot about Alex, who was the one that even woke him up with the mindlink.Ariel ignored the burning sensation that she was feeling in her injury and she buried her face into his chest. She started crying and Damien raised her head up. "Hey, hey. Why are you crying?" Damien asked her. Ariel ignored the question and she buried her face into his chest again, while crying. Damien just rubbed the back of her head slowly, trying to make her stop crying. He could feel the wetness of her tears soaking his top. He raised her head and he told her to come into the room.The both of them went into the room, her hands in his hands, with his fing

  • Alpha Damien    Alex

    When Ariel saw Damien looking like he was half dead in Alex's hands, her heart skipped so many beats and she ran towards him. At the moment, she was just thinking one thing; Damien . Her eyes were so focused on him. When she was just a few steps away from him, Alex stretched his hand forward, to stop her from moving any closer to Damien. When he did that, she looked up at him with confusion written all over her face. She didn't know why Alex stopped her from hugging Damien when he clearly needed her hug more than ever. She ignored his stretched out hand and she tried moving closer to him, but this time, she continued pushing his hand. He was too strong of her and after a few more failed trials, Ariel finally gave up. She backed away from Alex and Damien and she left the way for Alex to bring Damien in.When Alex brought Damien in, Ariel seized the opportunity to ask him why he didn't want her to help him with carrying Damien inside. She folded her hands against her chest and she looked

  • Alpha Damien    Hurting

    After Alex mindlinked Jasmine to come to the hospital with Tobias so that they could find Damien, both of them quickly arrived at the hospital as fast as they could and together. They began the search for Damien. Three of them searched high and low for Damien, but they did not find him. They searched every nook and cranny of the hospital, but they still didn't find him. By that time, they were worried.How could Damien have left the hospital when Alex had specifically informed all the doctors and nurses not to allow him to leave there? They were certainly never going to hear the end of this if Damien was found. Alex couldn't let them go scot free after what they just did. He had clearly given them specific orders, but they had failed to carry them out, as he had asked them to. They had let the Alpha go out of the hospital and roam around on his own, without the protection of anyone when he wasn't feeling too well. Alex vowed to deal with them mercilessly after this, but they had to fin

    The bright afternoon sun shone on Elle’s face, thus making her squint into the brightness. It was late afternoon, and she was in one of those moods where she only wanted to be with her bundle of joy.Her hair flew into her mouth when a wild air blew and she quickly chugged it out as she tried to talk, but ended up chuckling when her baby laughed at her.Everything She did was quite funny to him; even when she was at her lowest, he still always found something to laugh at or laugh with.Right now, she was sitting at a corner on the floor of the archery field, enjoying the view and the breezy atmosphere whilst watching her baby boy bounce ever so energetically around the open field chasing butterflies but frowning whenever they flew past him.With a smile on her face, she got up and began dancing around as her son cheered her on gleefully. To Elle, nothing else mattered aside from him and the fact that he was happy, not even her own life mattered.Just as they were busy dancing around ea

    Damien returned to the room in the hospital where Ariel laid, her condition now worsening. He entered to see the doctor and nurses around her trying to examine her condition. The doctor there was checking the life machine they had placed Ariel on and the nurses all stood too watching him and awaiting his directives. Damien inside the room now became confused as to what they were doing there. He had left her side not long ago and she was perfectly okay so he wondered what the problem might be now as anger began to build within him. He began demanding from them what was wrong and what they were there doing to her. Restless and impatient for an answer, he began snapping at everyone there. They tried to calm him down but failed in the attempt. The doctor who was trying his best to keep Damien calm gave up as he saw the Alpha already raging after hearing the news that Ariel ’s pulse had slowed.“Get Alex here immediately!” the doctor ordered one of his nurses.Quickly, the nurse Mindlinked
